ABRF and the Educational Affairs Committee of ASBMB are again co-sponsoring a symposium at the annual ASBMB meeting to be held jointly with the Biophysical Society in Houston, Texas on February 913, 1992. The symposium titled "Recent Advances in the Detection and Identification of Subtle Structural Alterations in Proteins and Nucleic Acids" encompasses seven talks by leaders in their fields describing up-to-date concepts and techniques for the structural analysis of proteins and nucleic acids. The symposium, co-chaired by Ron Niece and Ken Williams, will include the following presentations:

• Finn Wold - Post-Translational Modifications in Proteins: an Overview
• Paul Tempst - HPLC Peptide Mapping Following Enzymatic Digestion
• A . L. Burlingame - Characterization by Tandem Mass Spectrometry of Structural Modifications in Proteins
• Gregory Grant - Automated Amino Acid Sequencing: An Appraisal of Current Capabilities Based on Collaborative ABRF Studies Involving as many as 90 Laboratories
• Steven Carr - The Role of Mass Spectrometry in the Analysis of Covalently-Modified Peptides
• C. Thomas Caskey - Molecular Scanning Methods of Mutation Detection
• Lloyd Smith - Automated DNA Sequencing: A Look Into the Future
